Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImpact of Absorbing Agent on Moisture Reserves of Winter Wheat in the Conditions of Semiprovided Dry Farming Land of the South-East of KazakhstanLaila Klimovna Tabynbayeva, Serik Barmenbekovich Kenenbayev, Meiramgul Shagievna Suleimenova et al.In the conditions of dry-land farming, the leading factor of productivity, which is minimal, is moisture. Soil moisture directly influences the growth of plants by means of aeration, transfer of nutrient substances, absorption and transformation. The main crop acreage of the spike cereals in the south-east of Kazakhstan is located in dry farming lands that are characterized as dry and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 27 May 2017 · 7,406 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNutritive Status of Maytenus heterophylla and Acacia nilotica Leaves Cultivated in Winter from Two Varied LandscapesMzuyanda Vela, Sabelo Christian Gajana, Emrobowansan Monday IdamokoroWinter season happens to be the period prone to drought and in most cases bedeviled with incidences of low-quality veld and a corresponding high rate of livestock mortality. The present research aimed to assess the nutritive worth of Acacia nilotica as well as Maytenus heterophylla leaves in the winter season from two varied landscapes (high landscape and low landscape). A … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 3 · 8 Apr 2024 · 5,299 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsComparison of Twelve Dielectric Moisture Probes for Soil Water Measurement under Saline ConditionsM. Inoue, B.A. Ould Ahmed, T. Saito, M. IrshadRecently the research on the determination of soil water content and electrical conductivity using automated technique has received tremendous attention. Selecting the type of system that should be used for soil water measurement under saline conditions depends on its precision. A laboratory study was carried out to measure the soil water content (θ) and soil solution electrical conductivity (ECw) using … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,450 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Maize Potato Intercropping and Different Fertilization Methods on Rhizosphere Soil Microorganisms and Yield of PotatoHuanjin Ma, Shengguang Xu et al.A field experiment with three replicates was conducted to explore the effects of maize-potato intercropping and different nitrogen application strategies on rhizosphere soil microorganisms and potato yield. Microbial community analysis was based on relative abundance. Maize-potato intercropping improves land use efficiency, yet how differentiated nitrogen management regulates rhizosphere microecology and potato productivity in this system remains unclear. Clarifying nitrogen-mediated shifts … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 14 Sep 2026 · 790 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResponse of Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.) Varieties to Striga gesnerioides (Willd.) Vatke InfestationAlhassan Bawa, Ismael Yakubu, Yussif SeiduProduction of cowpea within the sub-Saharan Africa, and Ghana in particular, is bedeviled with many challenges, including Striga infestation, resulting in abysmal low grain and biomass yields. Thus, the study was conducted to evaluate Striga's impact on cowpea growth and yield. During the 2023 agricultural season, the study was carried out in Northern Ghana. A control (non-infested) experiment and a … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 18 Sep 2025 · 4,867 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLand Cover Changes from Forest Fires Using CA-Markov in Pelalawan, IndonesiaApri Zulmi Hardi, Abdulkader Ali MuradForest and land fires pose significant risks to ecosystems, particularly in Pelalawan Regency, Indonesia, where slash-and-burn practices during the dry season exacerbate peatland degradation. This study integrates Cellular Automata (CA) and Markov-chain analysis to model and predict land cover changes and carbon stock dynamics over the next 20 years. The model projects spatial patterns of land cover changes from 2002-2033 … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2024 · 4,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Animal Manure Application Rates on Soil Moisture Conservation at, Somali Regional State, EthiopiaTekilil WoldeThe Ethiopian economy is mainly agrarian. It employs 85% of the population and contributes 45% of the gross domestic product and 90% of the national export earnings but agriculture in Ethiopia is dominated by rainfed farming with low productivity specially dry land part of the country like Somali region. As a result, crops have severe moisture stress through their growth … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 15 Aug 2019 · 7,744 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUncertainty Analysis of Time of Concentration Equations based on First-Order-Analysis (FOA) MethodAsghar AzizianThe time of concentration (Tc) is one the most important time parameters to predict the response of a catchment to a given rainfall and plays a key role in the hydrologic design and rainfall-runoff modeling. There are a huge number of empirical/semi-empirical equations for estimation of Tc and depending on several parameters such as rainfall attributes, topographic and land cover … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2018 · 9,294 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMapping of Flood Risk Zones in Ala River Basin Akure, NigeriaOlajire Olabanji Olatona, O.A. Obiora-Okeke, J.R. AdewumiFloods are water induced disasters that lead to temporary inundation of dry land and cause serious damages in the affected location such as loss of lives and properties and destruction of infrastructures. Nigeria has experienced a lot of flood incidences and the impact of flood has also increased due to population growth coupled with uncontrolled developmental practices. The result of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 7 Feb 2018 · 9,243 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonitoring Land Use and Land Cover Effects on Water Quality in Cheung Ek Lake using ASTER ImagesNara Im, Kensuke Kawamura, Endan Suwandana, Yuji SakunoCheung Ek Lake is the biggest natural treatment plant for nearly 80% of wastewater and storm-water from Phnom Penh city.
